Thank you Valdis, you were spot on. I'm sorry, I must have been misunderstood, my main concern IS a blunt legal object being used against hushmail to find my identity. Without contact with their staff there is no way to prove their claim that their log files do not correlate IP addresses to e-mail addresses. I wanted to know if anyone on the list has had experiences with them that would support this claim (that hushmail does not know their own user's IPs). I'm sorry I came off as harsh to Mr. Smith but when I saw his email addy was "stfunub" I got a little carried away. I thought it would be ironic. :-). And Atte, I am not posting from my IP address as I am aware Yahoo leaks that information. Again, any information related to this claim of their's would be very helpful. --- Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu wrote:

Figuring out what correlating information is left in the various logfiles on the hushmail servers *is* rocket science for those who aren't hushmail staff. In fact, I'm fairly sure that "hushmail tells you what is in their logfiles" is the only legal way to do it (of course, getting them to tell you will likely require the use of a subpoena or other legalistic blunt weapon...)
